Don't Kill My Baby And My Son - Joel Rafael[00:00:01]
As i walked down that old dark town[00:01:18]
In the town where i was born[00:01:23]
I heard the saddest lonesome moan[00:01:29]
I ever heard before[00:01:35]
My hair it trembled at the roots[00:01:41]
Cold chills run down my spine[00:01:46]
As i drew near that jail house[00:01:52]
I heard this deathly cry[00:01:57]
Don't kill my baby and my son[00:02:04]
Don't kill my baby and my son[00:02:09]
You can stretch my neck on that old river bridge[00:02:14]
But don't kill my baby and my son[00:02:20]
Now i've heard the cries of a panther[00:02:29]
Now i've heard the coyotes yell[00:02:34]
But that long lonesome cry shook the whole wide world[00:02:40]
And it come from the cell of the jail[00:02:46]
Yes i've heard the screech owls screeching[00:02:51]
And the hoot owls that hoot in the night[00:02:56]
But the graveyard itself is happy compared[00:03:03]
To the voice in that jailhouse that night[00:03:08]
Don't kill my baby and my son[00:03:15]
Don't kill my baby and my son[00:03:21]
You can stretch my neck on that old river bridge[00:03:26]
But don't kill my baby and my son[00:03:32]
Then i saw a picture on a postcard[00:03:40]
It showed the canadian river bridge[00:03:45]
Three bodies hanging to swing in the wind[00:03:52]
A mother and two sons they'd lynched[00:03:56]
There's a wild wind blows down the river[00:04:03]
There's a wild wind blows through the trees[00:04:08]
There's a wild wind that blows round this wide wid world[00:04:14]
And here's what the wild winds say[00:04:20]
Don't kill my baby and my son[00:04:26]
Don't kill my baby and my son[00:04:32]
You can stretch my neck on that old river bridge[00:04:37]
But don't kill my baby and my son[00:04:43]
Don't kill my baby and my son[00:04:49]
